“Trek”
4-6 Hour Course
Saturday May 15, 2010 |
 |
The Storm the Trent
“Trek” course is designed to bridge
the gap between our beginner and advanced-level
race formats. The middle ground of our event formula,
these races are challenging, yet achievable; less
intensive than the Trek Elite advanced course,
but still offer a solid day of multi-sport adventuring.
As a result, Trek events tend to draw a diverse
mix of racer types, ranging from weekend warriors
to seasoned athletes, and anyone in between!
This year's host region on the south shores of Rice Lake offers all of the key features which make it an ideal location for the ninth annual production of Storm the Trent. Racers will be
faced with scenic flatwater paddling sections;
mountain bike stages that feature a challenging
but enjoyable mix of both trail and backroad routes;
and beautiful forest runs through well-maintained
trail networks.
The 2010 "Trek" race features a fantastic new
racecourse design; a beautiful resort venue with
on-site accommodation options; as well as tons
of great prizing for top finishers! Solo racers
and teams of 2 or 4 will travel through a series
of "checkpoint" stations across a clearly-defined
racecourse that features both marked and unmarked
sections. Complete details are provided in the
racer information package below.
